Six Bulgarians face long UK jail terms for spying for Russia
ai generated text
Six Bulgarians, consisting of four men and two women, have been convicted of conspiring to spy for Russia. The group, led by Orlin Roussev, operated between 2020 and 2023, targeting journalists and a Kazakh former politician. The group's activities included using "honeytraps" to gain access to sensitive information.
The defendants were deployed to gather information about prominent individuals whose activities were of obvious interest to the Russian state.
This prolonged activity also undermined the security and safety of the UK; and there can be no doubt that each of the defendants knew exactly who they were spying for.
